Some like the idea, bu( others call it discriminatory, saying it implies women are worse drivers than men. So are parking spaces for women considerate or discriminatoiy? Forum readers share their opinions.Leonard Wong (Singapore)I think there is no necessity for such a special treatment. If they arc truly poorer drivers, they have to brush up on their driving skills instead. When obtaining a license, (hey should have stricter tests or more practice sessions. If you do this, when some of them go overseas, they might get into trouble due to the smaller lots there. Robert (US)In the US some stores have special parking spaces, larger than normal and close to the store, for pregnant women. Maybe this is the intention. Besides, how many men go to shopping malls on their own regularly? There are always much larger than normal parking spaces in the US for the handicapped. Most are usually empty. Does this mean the handicapped arc being labeled as “less than”？Ivanapge (Singapore)It is not practicable. There are places where parking lot space is limited and if you reserve some lots for just lady drivers, the lot would go to waste if there are no lady drivers going to park. If she is considereda capabledriver who can manage on her own, why need special treatment? There are also man drivers who arc as bad when it es to driving or parking skills. Should they be given special treatment as well? Just improve your skills.Cdogg (Canada)It's a good idea if it keeps the parking lot flowing and free of minor accidents, where no one moves out of the way for other drivers to pass. It is a bad idea if these spots are not used and creates overcrowding where people just sit, waiting for space around the lot. Time will tell.21. Who share the similar idea in the passage?A. Leonard Wong and RobertB. Leonard Wong and IvanapgeC. Leonard Wong and CdoggD. Robert and Ivanapge22. According to Robert, which of the following can be inferred?A. All the stores have special parking spaces.B. The parking spaces are much smaller there.C. Few men go to shopping malls alone regularly.D. The disabled are treated as "less than”.23.What is the main focus of the passage?A. Are female drivers good at parking?B. Arc women good at driving cars?C. Are parking spaces fbr women discriminatory?D. Do female drivers deserve more parking spaces?BMore primary care doctors in a munity (社区)appear to lead to improved life expectancy for people living there, (hough a lack of such physicians across U.S. could be a cause of concern for overall population health in years to e.For the study, researchers looked at physician counts per 100,000 people in a range covering 2005 to 2015 in the U. S.» along with life expectancy and specific causes of death. They found that an increase of 10 primary care physicians per 100,000 population was associated with a 51.5-day increase in life expectancy, while an increase of 10 specialty physicians per 100, (X)0 population increased life expectancy by 19. 2 days. An increase in primary care physicians also was associated with reductions of many deaths including heart diseases and cancers.Along with those findings, though, the study said many munities did not have primary care physicians in 2015> with the decline in supply more Drominent in rural areas than their urban areas. Many believe that a well-functioning health care system requires a solid foundation of primary care, however, payment difference between primary care and technical specialties continue to dispirit (he U. S. primary care physician workforce.“Higher pay and lifestyle preferences lead most students to choose non-primary care fields, even when their hearts say primary care,“ the study said. "Wc must turn this trend around with practical changes in physician payment policy； no amount of superb primary care training or creative practice reform will prevent further declines in primary care physician, which will lead to worsening health fbr the United States. ”The study's researchers conclude that future research should focus on the "quality and cover of primary care, types of primary care physician training and service offerings, and effective access rather than just supply”. 24.Whal does (he author intend lo do in Paragraph 2?A.

But Madison was even more difficult to find.

He didn't give up through the stonns or the fire!” she added.Soon aftenvard, Madison was reunited with Miguel fbr the first time since the fire broke out. An emotional Gaylord said in an interview with the network （hat she was overe with joy to see Madison wailing for her. She also expressed how grateful she was to Sullivan.
